Phase 1 was a Success!!

This past Sunday Sleep is 4 Suckers hosted our last major event for the year. Phase 1 was a success. You had to have been there to grasp just how amazing the vibe was throughout the entire event, but in case you weren't there here is a little bit of what you missed.

Imagine cameras clicking, lights flashing, music thumping, and bottles popping in a huge studio space filled with people apart of the Sleepless Society. Now usually I would be enjoying myself and embracing the scene in order to blog about it the following day; however, I was lending my other talents to style the models and create looks for the photos. Even though I can't give much details about how the party was, I can tell you that my department, the dressing room and backstage area, was full of model, makeup, and hair chaos. Over 150 people showed up in support of Sleep is 4 Suckers, and we would like to thank everyone (too many to name) who came through to help us pull off such an amazing and successful event. We owned the night!

Your Last Chance

I want to make more money. I want to lose weight. I want to find myself. I want to be happy.
Remember all of those New Years Resolutions that you set back in January to accomplish this year? Well the year is almost up, so where are you now? Have you exceeded your goals or have you not gave them any attention since the day after you vowed to reach them? Congrats if you have met or exceeded your goals! You are apart of the small percentage that resolved their new years resolutions. However, if you were in the later group and, somehow, fell off track from reaching your goals, it's not too late to resume course. Sure the year is almost over, but there are 28 more glorious days left in 2012. Those days should be spent working towards your goals. Sure, you may not achieve them by midnight New Years Day, but you will finish the year out strong and get a head start on next year's resolutions. It's never too late to go after what you want. I have pushed the start, stop, resume, pause, and play buttons (and in that order) on the remote control of my life goals this year, and refuse to end the year with my goals in the pause position. When your goals are on hold the life that you want is being put on hold as well. When you finally resume, you will still have to put in the same amount of work because that dream did not get any closer while you were on pause. By not stopping your progress then the goal will be reached much faster. I know for a fact that if I had stuck with my resolutions instead of giving up, then I could have met my goal and surpassed it. But it's not to late. It's never too late when your future depends on it. So keep on trucking Night Crawlers. Your destination is right around the bend.

Got Happy?

It seems as if everyone is on the journey to find happiness. They believe obtaining certain things and statuses in life will bring them the happiness that they deserve. However, when those things fade away (and they all will fade away) so does the joy they once brought. So the question is, how do you obtain and keep your happiness? The answer is quite simple to me: Gratefulness. Usually people wonder around and search for happiness because they are not satisfied with what they already have. Instead of complaining about what we don't have, why don't we be thankful for what we do have? Now I am not rich nor do I have more resources than the average person, but if I were to sit down and write about all the things that I am afforded in life and the things that I have, I would quickly realize that I am very blessed beyond measure. Just the fact that I woke up in my right mind this morning is enough to make me thankful and allow me to be joyful for the rest of the day. It may sound cliche, but, seriously, I forget about all the things I don't have because I am too busy giving thanks for what I do have, and that brings me pure joy! Consequently, as material things come and go throughout my life I will choose to stay grounded in my happiness because at least I am alive to experience it all, and that is enough to keep me smiling until the day my heart stops beating.

If It Ain't Broke, Break it

Do you ever wonder why things aren't happening to you the way you planned? From the outside it seems as if you should have it all, but when you look at your accomplishments you barely have anything to show. Well then that means there's something in your life that needs to be broken. I'm sure you all have heard the saying "if it ain't broken then don't fix it", but sometimes if it ain't broke then it may need to be broken.

I received this message at church today, and at first when I heard the title I was in doubt of what direction the sermon was going in. However, five minutes in, I quickly began to change my opinion. The thing is that we all have a calling that we are meant to fulfill in life, like writing, singing, starting a business, or teaching for some of us. Once we know what our purpose is it is up to us to do the necessary work needed to get there. If we aren't where we want to be in life but we are putting in the work and everything seems to be in place, then there is a HUGE problem. Part of our responsibility is to go beyond observation and investigate to see what that problem is. As a part of life there are things that we must grow out of if we want to grow up. Just because it seems to be working in our lives right now doesn't mean it will work with the life we are meant to have. For example, if you were to conduct an investigation on your life, and the choices and actions you make or the people you surround yourself with now does not mix well with what you want for yourself in the future, then you will need to break it; Even if it does not appear to be broken it still needs breaking. Bad habits, unnecessary friendships, and other things that aren't in line with our calling that could hold us back need to be given the boot in order for us to move forward. It may be difficult to break away from complacency, but the habits and people that we leave behind will be replaced with something that will better aid us in what we are set out to accomplish.

 But on the other hand, if we believe that we are perfect and nothing we do deserves to be broken then we are denying ourselves the opportunity to face our rightful destiny. I definitely don't want that to happen, so I will be doing some soul-searching and praying tonight. Remember that your steps are already ordered. It is your job to follow the path already laid out for you.
